Working with you, for you, in partnership
Anxiety, depression and stress can affect anyone, of any age, at any time of their lives. It is normal to sometimes feel sad but when these things start to dominate your life it is time to seek help. Our role as counsellors is to listen objectively and without judgement. Read our frequently asked questions below:
Frequently asked questions
What happens when I contact you?
​
We will arrange a convenient time to talk with you to understand which service you want to access. Once agreed we will arrange a date for an assessment session. Lasting up to 90 mins to ensure understanding of your needs.
​
What does culturally safe mean?
​
You will be able to speak in a manner that reflects your Black African/Afro Caribbean culture without having to provide an in depth or historical explanation of all your nuances, beliefs and traditions. We acknowledge that sharing a culture should not mean a lost of individuality. You will be able to express your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgement. This is your confidential safe space.
